A pocket in a leading end portion of the auxiliary sole surroundingly engages a toe portion of the ski boot sole. An elongate, elastically deformable cord grippingly engages the heel portion of the ski boot. This cord has a pair of studs attached to its respective ends. A plurality of stud-engaging slots are spaced at predetermined intervals longitudinally of the auxiliary sole for releasably engaging these studs to provide a range of adjustment of the effective length of the unstressed cord.
